Ok one problem i have figured out is that my buckets dont have sufficient drainage and the bottom of my soil is staying wetter alot longer that it should. When the top is usually dry and needs a watering the bottom is still fairly damp.

Here's some pics of the fans on this clone and its 6 weeks into flowering.

Looks like a Molybdenum deficiency from the reddish leaves. I don't grow in soil, but check this out for more info. I have it bookmarked:

Hello smokers and tokers
it looks to me like potasium or phosphate deficiency add micro nutrients to correct thank you please :rasta:

What is your nighttime low temp?
Fall foliage colors don't necessarily mean a PROBLEM, although they can. When chlorophyll breaks down and the green fades, some strains will show the colors of other pigments.
You may very well be nitrogen deficient, and cold, wet soil can lock out nutes. Add drain holes in those pots, even in the sides, if you are concerned that they are not drying evenly.

Last night the temps were at 63F during lights out and its usually between 70-76 with lights on.

I was just wondering if wet soil could cause these types of problems because i know that my soil isnt getting sufficient drainage. I want to start flushing all of my plants now for the chop but i'm afraid that it might lead to rot from being so wet. Do you think that even matters at this stage?

I'd like to have them finish up the last two weeks but 3 out of 4 of them have this same coloration and all of them have damp soil at the bottom of the pots.

i agree w/stinky on this 1, bit if you know that drainage is bad, then why would you "not" make more efficient drainage holes? sounds kinda wierd that if you suspect that as the problem,, why dont you just fix it? anyway, whattype of soil makeup? have you ever worked the soil while it was wet?

I never made more drainage holes because i just didnt want to mistakenly destroy some roots. Even though i know a few damaged roots wont hurt, it just would've been to much work trying to make new drainage holes and making sure i didnt drop the pot and destroy the plants. This last one is the only one left and as much as i would like it to go 9 weeks i'll chop it down in a week or two.

What do you mean by working the soil while wet? And the soil is made of topsoil, composted bark, chicken and rabbit droppings, lime and perlite.

[stinkyattic]

Just out of curiosity... how long did you allow the chicken/rabbit manure to compost before adding it to your soil?

[GDS StonerBoy]

I'm not sure exactly how long but its been outside for over a month. I have about 2 more barrels full of the stuff outside my house thats been sitting since my grow first started so i guess the rest has been there for over 3 months.
